Strong's Lexicon chobereth: Band, company, association Original Word: חֹבֶרֶת Word Origin: Derived from the root חָבַר (chabar), meaning "to join" or "to bind together." Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: While there is no direct Greek equivalent for "chobereth," related concepts of fellowship and unity can be found in Greek terms like κοινωνία (koinonia), which means "fellowship" or "partnership." Usage: The term "chobereth" refers to a group or association of people bound together by a common purpose or interest. It is often used in contexts where individuals are united for a specific task or mission, emphasizing the idea of fellowship and collective action. Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Israelite society, community and collective identity were vital. The concept of being part of a "chobereth" would resonate with the Israelites' understanding of tribal and familial bonds. Such associations were not only social but also religious, as they often gathered for worship, festivals, and communal activities. The idea of being bound together was integral to maintaining social cohesion and religious observance.
